While reading Twisted Path 4, and idea occured to me.  When an
author appears in an anime/manga he knows, invariably it's one
of their favorites, and they have to deal with future information,
save Sylvie, etc. (Has there been an authorfic that *didn't*
save Sylvie?  She's the Deirdre of BGC.)

Anyway, what if an author ended up in a world they knew was based
on an anime, but they don't know a lot about it, or they hate it?
e. g., what if I ended up in the SM universe?

	That's exactly what I'm doing with my Tangled Skein Fic, Sean..
The entire Legion's Quest fic series is about someone who :

1) Does NOT like being in a fan fic and 
2) even tried suicide to end what's happened to him.

"Um, sorry, didn't mean to strangle her.  Guess that kicks that
Crystal Kingdom thing in the head, huh?"

Just a thought...

	And a very good thought it is, Sean... something that needs more
exploring by other authors. Ones who can write better than I can, at
least...
